** Summary changed: - Ghostscript in Gutsy and Hardy is not able to print encrypted PDFs out of Adobe Reader 8.1.1 + [Gutsy SRU Request] Ghostscript in Gutsy and Hardy is not able to print encrypted PDFs out of Adobe Reader 8.1.1
** Description changed: Binary package hint: ghostscript There is a problem with printing secured PDFs from Abode Reader 8.1.1 to non PostScript printers. This problem is observed with Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon (7.10), more specifically where the version of GhostScript on the machine is "8.61 pre-release". The CUPS error logs show "GPL Ghostscript SVN PRE-RELEASE 8.61: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1". This issue is mentioned in bug# 145772 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acroread/+bug/145772) as well. Since the issue is not observed with the official stable release of Ghostscript 8.61 (http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/doc/GPL/gpl861.htm), that should be the one available at the Ubuntu Gutsy repository. + + TEST CASE: + + 1. Take the PostScript file attached to this bug (first attachment) and + let Ghostscript render it, passing the file in via standard input but + without buffered reading: + + cat encrpdf.gs | gs -sDEVICE=x11 - + + 2. Open the second attachment with Adobe Reader 8.1.1 (acroread) and try + to print it on a non-PostScript printer and on a system where you did + not manually apply the workarounds which I have shown in this bug + report. Or print it into a file and then do the test case (1) with this + file. + + 3. Do test case (2) with any encrypted/usage-restricted PDF file. -- [Gutsy SRU Request] Ghostscript in Gutsy and Hardy is not able to print encrypted PDFs out of Adobe Reader 8.1.1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/172264 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
